Former Muslim Extremist in Uganda Flees Wrath of Ex-Colleagues

Peter encourages new believers who face the challenges of claiming a new identity in Christ–when their friends and family resist, and even persecute the new believer. In the climax of his letter, 4:12, he said, “Do not be surprised by the fiery ordeal that comes on you…” Pray for this brother in Christ who is living out that challenge now–that he may be strengthened by the Word of the Lord and the power of His Holy Spirit. Pray that his example of faith may be an encouragement to other believers and a witness to those who have yet to believe.
